It’s not a matter of empathy… If each day is torture under status quo, how is going under a regime promising to make it worse a better option?

But again, maybe Biden is the status quo which is not great I admit, but Trump is torture then death… How is that even a “close” call to make?
Exactly right
Nobody represents the people, but that’s not a new problem nor, in anyway, a new thing in this Trump era
My biggest fear is that the USA always gets to chose someone who does not represent them at all but at least had the notion that we need a planet to live in
Trump is a man child and will see the world burn out of petty spite. And us, in the rest of the world, would have to still live with those consequences
So back to the debate and the choice between Biden and Trump… Sure Biden is a terrible option, like chosing to get cancer… But Trump is like chosing to be gang raped, shot and left for dead in an open sewer and here we are pretending the 2 bad options are somehow the same
Actually, the other way around. We keep on compartmentalizing, Trump can lie all he wants and nothing happens, but Joe stutters and it’s a national disgrace… How can you compare one without including the only alternative?
Calling a spade a spade would at least include the mention that Trump didn’t answer a single question. All he did was ramble; I could stomach 3 questions and I cannot tell from the answer if Trump understood any of them
Thanks for the info
Worse the the status Quo though?
Is longevity currently a deal breaker?
Asking because I’m pretty sure just saw an article about solar panels from the 90s that were still working at 70+% capacity
America: “it’s fine when corporations move manufacturing to China and sell back home for a huge profit… But it’s not okay for China to sell their manufactured goods in the USA”
Proving this ban is not about being scared of China … it’s about killing competition for Murican companies
The free market at play
Most capitalist countries still have universal heath care…
Certainly not in the US of A… but the rest of the world may have a chance if this actually pans out
Nope… I’d be surprised if they are made to pay a fine
What about it? You are still free to say exactly what the government wants you to say
Ah, free speech in the land of the free
American cops have shown repeatedly they cannot be trusted with a baton… Anything with their involvement leading to injecting people with anything is completely absurd and dystopian
Land of the free my ass
They have been used in incredibly generic jobs like fast food restaurants
And the thing is that the USA could have reinvested some of the profit (when China was cheap) to advance new industries and tech. Instead, they just padded the bank accounts and are now in a position where they are not competitive anymore (“as” competitive)
How is Trump going to improve anything for your example demographic?
You keep pretending there is logic there yet have shown no logical path there
